What Does it Take?
To see darkness, there must be something wrong.
To feel emptiness, there must be something missing.
But when you feel nothing at all, what does it mean?
Was there ever anything there?
Is this what was destined for you?
This is no place for someone so young.
So why is this pain feel like it belongs?
What does it take to make it go away?
A little slice of the wrists? A few more pills in? A burn to leave a dreadful scar?
Where does this end?
Why will people go through this?
What does it take just to feel a little bit better?
To feel emptiness, there must be something missing.
But when you feel nothing at all, what does it mean?
Was there ever anything there?
Is this what was destined for you?
This is no place for someone so young.
So why is this pain feel like it belongs?
What does it take to make it go away?
A little slice of the wrists? A few more pills in? A burn to leave a dreadful scar?
Where does this end?
Why will people go through this?
What does it take just to feel a little bit better?
